An innocent man who spent five months in a maximum security prison after his ex-fiancée falsely accused him of rape has found love again with a new girlfriend.
Daniel Jones, 31, spent five months in Goulburn prison, 195km south-west of Sydney, in 2014 after Sarah Jane Parkinson, his then fiancee, made false allegations that he had raped an assaulted her.
After a lengthy police investigation Mr Jones was found to be innocent of all charges and Parkinson was jailed for three years and one month.
Mr Jones has now found love again, but his family say his family are still struggling after spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on legal fees.

Emma Holsty, who is related to Mr Jones, said the family is attempting to recover since losing 'hundreds of thousands of dollars' it cost in legal fees to fight for his innocence and freedom.
'That is before any compensation for the damage she (his ex-fiancée) caused for my cousin and his immediate family - now torn apart,' she wrote on Facebook.
'It really has been a six year nightmare that will never be repaired.'
Despite the horrific sequence of events, it seems that Mr Jones has found love again.
